N763 is another one to watch.

While one may feel like they are flying in a freighter when aboard one of Omni's 240-seat 767-200s, they technically don't fly cargo, at least not the kind that doesn't load itself. :-)

These are passenger military charters.

Thanks for the correction! My confusion and mistake.

What's a realistic first year W2 at Atlas?

Plan for min possible, then anything above that is gravy.

Four months at Training Pay (4 x 1600) = 6400

Eight months at 50 hour guarantee (747: 79.60 x 50 = 3980 x 8 = 31,840).

6400 + 31,840 = 38240 GROSS (plus per diem ~53/day)

If you're hired into the 767 you can subtract ~16% from that.

Dear pilots, how much is ideal experience required for atlas 747 fo position?

1700 TT mostly
multi turbine SIC
270 PIC
A320 PIC rated but zero on type

[emoji20] not that experienced but got big dreams.

Yeah, got that, but more interested in what people are actually making. If they're short, aren't FOs flying over the min? In the presentations they always say it's $70k+. Maybe that's optimistic.

I've heard $65k from a buddy that went through last year, he doesn't fly days off.
